    Research by a professor at Bar Ilan University estimated that the ashes of one cow could be made into enough cleansing water for 660 billion purifications.

    Truly unhinged “research.” TrueAnon did an episode about this red heifer shit and it’s absolutely wild.

      as much as i hate everyone involved, as well as ritualized slaughter, all in the name of settler bullshit, i almost respect the grift of scamming research money from dumb foundations at bad universities, and this looks like ten seconds well spent on a phone’s calculator app. 660 billion exactly, or 666.666 billion?

    I’m wondering what the aftermath of all the weird eschatological bullshit not working out will be for American evangelicals. Significant odds the biggest contingencies will just say “Oh they didn’t do it right” for whatever reason and the ones with clout will just keep trying to rules lawyer the end times, but you never know.

      No that won’t happen. That’s too peaceful for the American evangelical, they’ve become far too extreme for awhile now. Their entire ideology has become total White supremacy, with the veneer of Christianity.

      You know how those psychos will act.

      They will immediately move into stab-in-the-back myths against the Jews, and will push for their oppression in the states. They’ll use the story of Judas and the Israelites plotting against their god-as they always have- to further justify their anti-semitism.
